Hull City v Aston Villa Post-Shambles Thread

[villadelph]

can someone do their best to cc the interview, can't get in front of a tv

[brontebilly]

On the game itself, fuck it was awful. Best league in the world....yeah right

Aside from the necessary change at management level, not sure where we go from here on the pitch. Clark was the only one to emerge with any credit.

Benteke, Vlaar and Sanchez will come back in. Might aswell bring Richardson back at wing back, I genuinely never want to see Cissokho in a Villa shirt again, the same could be said for a few of them mind you. But for a big guy he is an utter coward on the pitch, gives away mindless freekicks one of which they score from and not even pub league standard with the ball.

If Benteke had scored the one at the end might have given him a bit of confidence, he was ok when he came on in fairness. Gabby, Sinclair, Weimann all non entities tonight, Gil was hopeless in the second half too. Westwood offers nothing in these kind of games. Delph improved in the second half playing some decent balls to Benteke but still nowhere near what we need from him. Slow, dull, predictable, lateral passing. The likes of Bacuna and Grealish must be seething not to be getting a look in.

The results, style of play, body language of players all are screaming for a new voice in charge. It simply has to happen after tonight.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Bloody hell that made me jump.

Changing the manager won't make a blind bit of difference here. The malaise is too deep set.

Sack him tomorrow. Out of spite. Justifiable spite. He's had ample chances to turn this round. He's just not up to it.

Give Sid the caretaker role until the end of the season. Clear instructions that there will be a new man in come June.

Fox get on the phone from 8am tomorrow sounding out replacements. Be brave. They won't be needing premiership experience where we're going.

Sid would be no better.

I don't think he is a long term appointment, but you need someone with the arrogance and shit or bust attitude of Sherwood to galvanise the whole thing.

Please don't get Sid involved in this mammoth fuck up. He's not got the personality to turn around this ship and when we do go down it would be a slight stain on his record. He's done his time here and earned his reputation let's not tarnish it by putting him in charge of something he couldn't handle ala Shearer with the blind hope one of us can turn it around.

[Eurochamps82]

Must get rid of this toss-pot now so that he can join the list of great Scottish managers who have failed us.........Docherty, McNeill, McLeish and Lambert!

COME ON LERNER - ACT TONIGHT AND SACK HIM - ADMIT TO ALL THAT LAMBERT SHOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN GIVEN A NEW CONTRACT!!!!!

[mike]

I can't wait for the post match interview.

We were excellent.

[PeterWithe]

Not got much to say about the game as we all watched.

One thing I always said about Lambert was that when he was under pressure he knew how to scrape a result from somewhere, that's now gone and I wouldn't go into any of the remaining games expecting anything but defeats with him at the helm.

I still don't expect him to go but he should do for his health, he looked incredibly stressed on the bench after the second and tears didn't look too far away.

Yes, I know Sid isn't the answer. The  season has gone. I've written it off. The players are not good enough to get us out of this whomever is in charge.

The midfield doesn't do enough to get us out of it. Gil, decent in patches, but can't expect him to carry a team alone.

[cdbearsfan]

Even Balotelli has scored as many league goals as us this year.

[dicedlam]

Shambolic and absolutely atrocious.

[myf]

Even if he goes it's looking like a tall order to turn it round. A month too late as has been said by others.

just sums it up with qpr leapfrogging us.

Agreed. He too nice, and I mean that genuinely.

Hate to say it but Sherwood would do. Appears to have missed out on QPR

[ciggiesnbeer]

Maybe being in the bottom three will finally energise Fox that we're going to be relegated from all the megabucks if they don't kick Lambert out now. Well I can dream

I genuinely think they will. I thought for a while Hull might be Lerners breaking point. We will see but I think Lambert will no longer be Villa manager this time next week.

[DB]

Yellow ticker when I wake up tomorrow....Lambert gone.

[Matt C]

Just when I start thinking 'well, at least it can't get any worse' our inept manager somehow surpasses himself again. At least he has a talent for something.
